“A truly fascinating opportunity to gain a holistic view of yourself in a totally new light and to gain new skills that you will take with you and use time and time again.” JG

Welcome,
I would like to take a few moments to tell you a bit more about myself. My early career was spent supporting people with learning disabilities and mental health problems who were being discharged from long stay hospitals into the community. I prepared and delivered social education programmes, life skills training and provided counselling.
Thereafter, I worked as a Human Resources Manager, for twenty years, in various Social Care organisations specialising in the management of employee relations and conflict resolution. During this period, as a qualified Trainer/Lecturer, I gained broad experience of delivering professional and management training and delivering skills training to various organisations.
“Thank you for all the help you have given me, as it is no exaggeration to say I wouldn’t have been able to face surgery without your support” YM
After recognising that training and conflict resolution techniques are hindered by individual expectations and experiences, which restrict individual choices and limit the capacity to change, I began to explore different ways to achieve change. I completed the Hypnotherapy Foundation and Diploma in Hypnotherapy courses at the highly respected and long established Atkinson Ball College. The course teaches advanced hypnotherapy and NLP techniques which can be used to treat a range of different conditions.
“I felt a rush of satisfaction and contentment that I haven’t felt before. Thank you so much for teaching me this. I am bursting inside!” JH
I have since qualified in Ericksonian Hypnotherapy and gained NLP Practitioner and NLP Coach qualifications with Igor Ledochowski. In addition I have qualified as a Time Line therapist and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Practitioner.
I regularly deliver training based on using NLP techniques within business organisations, including postgraduate GP courses and coach senior managers and business owners.
I have developed The Discovery Technique, which is a simple but powerful way to assist individuals use their mind more effectively, achieve their goals and control how they think, feel and take action.
“I’m certainly feeling the best I have done in many years. Thanks again for all your help.” MC
Whilst I regularly work with a full range of clients, I have a particular interest in the following areas:
- Anxiety, stress, and panic attacks
- Business coaching.
- Depression, Tiredness and M.E.
- Performance Coaching
- Sexual problems
- Smoking
- The Discovery Technique
- Trauma
- Weight Loss
